Surpassing the standards of any luxury art book, this sumptuous, full-color, two-volume slipcased set features custom-milled paper and an elegant design, making it an automatic collector's edition. Every single Far Side cartoon (4,081 to be exact) is included by year, including more than 1,100 that have never been published in a book. Gary Larson wrote a comprehensive introduction to the book, original essays to kick off each of the 14 chapters, and random annotations throughout. The wild 'n' crazy Steve Martin shares his pithy thoughts on The Far Sider in "The First Word." Fan letters, outraged letters to the editor, and snippets of reviews are sprinkled throughout. The Far Side holds a unique place in the history of cartooning, one that makes it incomparable to any other comic. Far Side fans are like no others; ten years after its end, they still clamor for calendars and books, as reflected in phenomenal lifetime sales: more than 40 million books and 60 million calendars have been sold.
